A former Osage school board member accused of stealing from the Mitchell County Treasurer's Office has received a deferred judgment.

The Mason City Globe Gazette reports that 46-year-old Tracey Mooberry, who had worked as a clerk in the treasurer's office from 2011 until May, was also put on probation Friday for a year and fined $350.

She originally was charged with felony theft but pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of misconduct in office.

Authorities say the thefts occurred in the last few weeks of her employment. The county attorney has said the money was paid back.

Mooberry was on the Mitchell County Conservation Board and the Osage School Board when the charge was filed. She's since resigned both posts.
